The Final Fantasy Mixes are off to a good start but we need help to make this a reality. Link to Kickstarter: kickstarter.com/projects/tfb/t…

When this came out I franticly paged a friend to let him know I got it. Yes, on his pager. LOL. It was a constant topic of conversation for a long time.

🤞

Yeah so I got fired from a theme song gig for which I was not charging at all for something the host did on AI. Oh well, that song will be on Themes and Preludes Vol 2 and it's really good.

Wildly unrated game. One of my favorites on SNES. Which of course also means one of my favorites all time.

FFIV's Battle 1 features more great bass. It first oscillates between the FF battle riff and bouncing octaves for kinetic movement. The second section adds groovy fifths in major and relative minor to mirror the FF Prelude. Not flashy. Not over the top. Yet seared into memory.

@GavelGamer One of the best tunes off an incredible soundtrack.

Troian Beauty is such an underrated track in FFIV. The song is an affectionate waltz. A gentle harp cascades like trickling water as strings and flute dance through a simple yet gorgeous melody. I’d often lose myself here, just watching the frogs play.

I miss this.

@theWellRedMage Yes, my reaction as well.

Trying something. What's the post below this?

There exist two types of fictional power. In one, you show how your creation works and how it fits within the world. You don't need to explain everything. If you have a dragon, you can say it flies and breathes fire and your fans should accept it. But if you have your teleport across a continent, an ability not normal to dragons, then they are within their rights demanding an explanation. Or you can say your gunfighter is the fastest in the West. After all one must be the fastest, right? Now if your creation is something novel, like Cthulhu, you need to explain a little more. Cthulhu is huge, immortal, and has vast unknowable powers. "He is from another part of the universe." Then there is the other type of power, where you just invent stuff for comic or dramatic effect and don't justify it ever - like Dragonball Z and One Punch Man. Goku is unbeatable and his power isn't explained, because it's inexplicable and impossible. His ability to "yell so loud it breaks time warps" is just because ... he trained hard? It's on a par with defeating Hitler's blitzkrieg because you pulled out an UNO reverse card on the lead tank in the column. It's nonsensical and silly. Which is kind of the point. It's why we love stuff like One Punch Man. For reasons that are dumb and whiny (I blame myself), it bugs me when someone says "Goku could beat Dracula" or "Saitama could beat Cthulhu". I mean, I guess they could because that's how they're defined. But it's an entirely different way of looking at things. Yes Bugs Bunny could pants Cthulhu, so he'd have to bend over and pull up his shorts while Bugs hits Cthulhu on the head with a frying pan. But understand from which source your fictional power emerges. You can say "My gunfighter is the fastest in the West." without question. But you can't say "My gunfighter is so fast his bullets exceed the speed of light." without either just turning him into a joke or making a feeble attempt at justifying it. This is why the whole idea of wheelchairs in Star Trek or D&D is dumb. It is canon that the "wheelchair" problem has been FIXED in both universes. So you need to invent a reason for it NOT to be fixed. Such as when they said Kirk couldn't take the universal eyeball drug which meant he needed glasses for close-in work. Or Pike's body was so destroyed he would die in seconds without his support chair. Figh wizards, why can't you accept a wheelchair?" is on par with "You accept dragons, why can't you accept a Ford Shelby Mustang in your fantasy world." You CAN accept wheelchairs or, I guess Shelbys, but you must justify it becuase it is from beyond that world. Fight me.

I'll be at the Austin show! Looking forward to it!

Finally saw Excalibur. I will never be the same.

I can’t explain it, but the Final Fantasy IV menu portraits just make me happy.

This game is so satisfying. The mechanics of swordplay are so well done, and the action feels so good once you've start to get competent with the blade. It it one of those that has a rough beginning, but having worked through that, I absolutely loved the game.

If The Lord of the Rings were a comedy film. 😅

In 1977, Bing Crosby and David Bowie delivered one of the most beautiful duets of all time. It was Crosby’s final Christmas special. Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@theWellRedMage Finished annual run through a week or so ago.

Since 2025 is almost over now, I'm curious if you have an annual game. This is mine. I play through Mega Man X at least once every year!
